Thanks guy's for all the help, I have been at this refinery for 23 years, good pay for someone like me with just a high school education, six figures are attainable, but I don't like overtime at this point in my life, I am 51 yrs old.

I would like something more rewarding, I would really like something that is daylights with weekends off, but probably won't find it.

I know someone will come in and buy this refinery again and I will get called back, might be 6 months, I was lucky to get to stay here this long, as the layoffs started 2 months ago and even though it is union they didn't follow seniorty list ,but I made it down to the last 6 people in the skeleton crew out of 300 based upon job need, I am a control room board operator who just does his job.

I have even thought about Paralegal, maybe Jamo would hire me!!
